James and Al welcome John Hopkins’ Agora Institute Senior Fellow Peter Pomerantsev to examine Putin’s plans in Ukraine and the role of propaganda in the conflict. They discuss what the West needs to do now, Russian public opinion, how to win the information war, and what it will take for democracies to triumph over authoritarian regimes while staying true to their innate strengths.

Email your questions to James and Al at politicswarroom@gmail.com or tweet them to @politicon.

Make sure to include your city, we love to hear where you’re from!
